XPANDER - New automated specimen handling system for DMA+ series
METRAVIB Xpander is an automated specimen handling system dedicated to Dynamic Mechanical Analyzers of DMA+ series.
Xpander allows DMA test campaigns to run continuously and autonomously without any operator intervention.
Xpander has been designed to significantly increase the number of tests performed by METRAVIB DMA instruments in various test modes: compression, tension and shear. Tests are performed around the clock and no longer require the presence of an operator. Xpander's flexibility makes possible to accommodate with material specimens of various shapes and sizes.
The specimen handling automation targeted since the original design of DMA+ series ensures keeping high performance in their robotic mode.
As a pioneer in the automation of dynamic testing, METRAVIB has been supplying the leaders of the rubber and tire industries with robotic Dynamic Mechanical Analyzers for more than 15 years.

VHF104
VHF104 is an innovative Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer that offers a direct experimental method to measure the materials' viscoelastic properties over a very high frequency range from 100 Hz up to 10 kHz. Such a test requires only a few minutes, while the traditional approach with DMA low frequency testing on several temperature stages requires several hours and WLF calculation.
VHF104 allows optimizing the laboratory's productivity by fulfilling industrial requirements for the rapid analysis of large numbers of materials formulations.
ROB100
ROB100 is an automatic specimen loader dedicated to the DMA+450 Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer. The analysis of a large number of specimens is then possible, on a continuous and unattended basis, without any action required from the operator during the tests.
ROB100 offers a free choice in the definition of tests and the combination of experiments applied to each specimen. Based on an original mechanical system (METRAVIB patent), ROB100 ensures full control of mounting conditions for each specimen and guarantees unique measurement reproducibility.
